I Say Nothing Anywhere

by Noshi Gillani

I don't express anywhere, I am silent
I have been ordered my lord, I am silent

The story wants to tell something
All the characters are silent

A rain of stones confronts us
But like a stone, I am silent

Until now the murderer is safe
But his surroundings are silent

The humanity seeks the criminal's address
But the guards of the village are silent

It's the same season and same chained evening
But why are these people silent this time ?
